Tellabs announced the shipment of its one millionth optical network terminal (ONT). Tellabs noted that its ONTs are among the first to be certified by the Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA). MoCA reduces FTTP costs by eliminating the need for new inside wiring. Tellabs is evolving its ONT product line to include Gigabit PON (GPON) technology. The newest ONTs, now in customer evaluations, include the Tellabs 1600-712 Single Family Unit GPON ONT, and the Tellabs 1600-721 and 1600-726 Multiple Dwelling Unit GPON ONTs. These ONTs are a vital component of the Tellabs DynamicHome Solution, delivering 2.4 Gbps downstream and 1.2 Gbps upstream.
